  1. It's not as if you don't live in Oklahoma!!!! When I lived in NorCal in the late 80's there was a HUGE media push in California to "sell out" and purchase land/ranch in Oklahoma. It was in all the newspapers....sell your home and you can purchase 300 acre ranch in Oklahoma. I suppose alot of folks did just that and are now enjoying that OK "feel". I spent a coupla' years in aircraft school in Tulsa and really enjoyed the riding in the western Ouachita mountain range, beautiful country and American native tradition. But some of them white boys need a little work.
  2. Close guys...it's a '78 I've been working on for a coupla' months. It's bored to 540cc and 12.5-1 compression piston and mild porting for WFO throttle thru a modified Mikuni carb set up for WFO thru a open megaphone. Rearsets,dragbars and dunstall fender finish the appearance off nicely. This 275 lb. scooter pumps out near 50 ponies and is geared properly to top the "ton" all while pulling like a freight train. Everything was done "in house" with the exception of the boring the cylinder to piston but the engine work,paint,seat(base is from an aluminum stop sign)was done by me. Fun to ride...this is the bike to bet on from stoplight to stoplight! Enjoy more photos at: My fotopage -or- My other fotopage
  3. I'm begging ya' pleeeeaaasssseeee steal my bike, cause I've got a video camera ready to show ya' what a fool ya' are after he lets go of ya! No really, I just had my truck window broken out by some low life **-_%#*sucker who stole nothing but the paperwork outa' my glovebox...he didn't even bother with my ALPINE stereo...dumbass. I recommend everyone get one of these "bike locks", they make good friends too!
  4. Hey Staedtler-I'll be heading that way on the 22nd(saturday). I haven't decided whether I'll take the Supertwin or my flat track Yamaha SR-540. Photos from last harvest-

    Dammit

    Hey JRT-my shop is located in San Marcos and your gramma is right, it was a beautiful day here in central Texas. I was lucky enough to score 3-day pass for the Austin City Limits festival...what a rockout.The show
  7. No need to hold onto the old checkbook...that Mille V-8 will never see the light of day....H20 cooling and 4 valves per cylinder. I'm not saying they couldn't make it...I'm just saying they haven't lived up to those expectations in a very long time! My Webpage My other Webpage
  8. My buddy Ted Cobb from Atlanta has been kickin' butt and takin' names in this series. This is very competetive and Guzzi should think about something along these lines, but since they no longer produce sportbikes My Webpage My other Webpage
  9. And furthermore-put this in yer pipe and smoke it!Cycle News My WebpageMy other webpage
  10. I think I remember reading this back in 2003...still a great writeup on a seldom seen bike! Here's the "business" end !! My photo website My other webpage
  11. Yeah, I know it's not a Lemans...but it's Rossa! My Webpage My other webpage
  12. I like the '67 Pontiac GTO behind the Buick Grand National
  13. Oh man-can I pick 'em? :
  14. My brother is an official with the AMA/FIM working the start/finish grid at Seca and today he calls me screaming into his cell phone "ya gotta hear these bikes" so I place the phone to my ear and heard exactly what I thouhgt I would hear upon my timely demise...pure ecstatic joyful noise!!! If I died tomorrow this is the sound I wanna hear passing thru the white light into the abyss. Now Nicky does have a chance in this fray, we've all seen him back the rear end around on turn 2, he does know this track well and is suits him well, but so does Colin! We, the very lucky citizens of the US ARE the winners in that GP racing is back with a vengeance.
  15. Paul-am I to understand that Moto Guzzi will no longer build V-11 LeMans sport bikes as per your conversation w/guiseppe or were you referring the MGS-01?
  16. UMMMMMMMMMM-Austin, but the bowl is FULL and spilling over as it has been since '94. Millions of Californians have moved here since the Northridge earthquake and it hasn't stopped yet! Oh yeah, there is one Guzzi here in Austin, actually I know quite a few Guzzisti here.
  17. Call Mike ot Todd at MPH in Houston...they had a Nero w/0 miles for 10,900 on their showroom floor
  18. The Mondial Piega was a hard bike to sell..it now resides in the hands of Evoluzione motorcycles. This cycle was the best handling bike I've ever had the pleasure of riding, and I've ridden alot of 'em.
  19. I have for sale a nero Ghezzi-Brian Supertwin with 541 kilometers. The price is $16,000 USD You can view this bike at:My Photo page
  20. Thanks JRT, but I'll post it there as well...this forum gets more exposure which is why I posted it here.
  21. Posting photographs for viewing 2002 Ghezzi-Brian Supertwin(Nero/silver)at: My Photopage In my haste I forgot to post the asking price-$16,000 USD
  22. Hey Alex-Corsa, that's no Bimota...it's a Vyrus with a 943 Ducati 2-valve motor. Check out their website at:vyrus
  23. What-you thought a 1225cc 4-valve could't whip a 2-valve 900cc on a closed course? How did the MGS-01 get entered into a class of smaller displacement/lower powered bikes in the first place....I'd like to see the rulebook. Also, what model Suzuki is entered into the race to have such a pitiful showing? This weeked at Barbers the GSXR-1000 "mopped" up the field, obviously they are not racing that model in Italy! I still want to see the MGS-01 pitted against the smaller displacement Ducati 999"r", there would be no 10 second win IMHO. You take accolades where ya' can get 'em, I guess!
  24. Hey Tex-wut about "Bubba"?
